The Barack Obama Speech

'm off to the United States Embassy to watch Barack Obama's acceptance speech. It is going to be an incredible moment, regardless of the fact I don't like his policies. It is a milestone for the United States to have an African-American candidate for President, when just one generation ago they had segregation.

So offline most of the afternoon, but any breaking news I can from my . I've been doing that a lot this week.

I'm at the Embassy next week also for McCain's speech. He should be announcing his Vice-Presidental candidate over the weekend, which will be fascinating. The choice of Biden doesn't seem to have changed the polls much. I am picking a big spike after the speech today.
